Sensitivity of strange quark polarization to flavor SU(3) symmetry breaking

Ali Khorramian, Elliot Leader, Dimiter Stamenov +1

The polarized strange quark puzzle concerns the fact that the polarized strange quark density extracted from polarized inclusive deep inelastic scattering data is significantly neg…

Determination of the fragmentation functions from an NLO QCD analysis of the HERMES data on pion multiplicities

Elliot Leader, Alexander V. Sidorov, Dimiter B. Stamenov

An NLO QCD analysis of the final HERMES data on pion multiplicities is presented and a new set of pion fragmentation functions is extracted from the best fit to the data. We have s…

New analysis concerning the strange quark polarization puzzle

Elliot Leader, Alexander V. Sidorov, Dimiter B. Stamenov

The fact that analyses of semi-inclusive deep inelastic scattering suggest that the polarized strange quark density is positive in the measured region of Bjor…

Problems with the perturbative QCD interpretation of HERMES data on semi-inclusive lepto-production of pions

Elliot Leader, Alexander V. Sidorov, Dimiter B. Stamenov

A theoretical analysis has been performed of the HERMES semi-inclusive deep inelastic data on the difference between and multiplicities. It turns out that the appli…

Importance of Semi Inclusive DIS Processes in Determining Fragmentation Functions

Elliot Leader, Alexander V. Sidorov, Dimiter B. Stamenov

A NLO QCD analysis of the HERMES and COMPASS data on pion multiplicities is presented. Sets of pion fragmentation functions are extracted from fits to the data and compared with th…

Importance of Fragmentation Functions in Determining Polarized Parton Densities

Elliot Leader, Alexander V. Sidorov, Dimiter B. Stamenov

New fragmentation functions (FFs) are extracted from a NLO QCD fit to the preliminary COMPASS data on pion and kaon multiplicities. It is shown that the new kaon FFs are very diffe…
